When Your PS4 Pro Won’t Turn On
If pushing the power button does nothing, don’t freak out. Here’s what you might try.
Power Supply Check
First things first, let’s make sure your power cord and power supply are in good shape. Check if the power cord is plugged into a working outlet and the PS4 Pro. Sometimes a loose connection can cause the console to not turn on. Also, inspect the power supply to see if there are any visible signs of damage. If everything looks okay, try plugging the power cord into a different outlet just to be sure.

Hard Reset Your PS4 Pro
If the power supply seems to be working fine, but your PS4 Pro is still as quiet as a sleeping kitten, it might need a little wake-up call. To perform a hard reset, press and hold the power button on the console for about 10 seconds. This action forces the PS4 Pro to shut down completely and resets certain settings. After that, try turning it on again and see if the issue has been resolved. Sometimes, a hard reset can work wonders!
PS4 Pro Making Strange Noises?
Hearing weird beeps or whirs coming from your PS4 Pro? Don’t panic! Let’s dive into troubleshooting those strange sounds together and get your console back to its quiet, gaming self.
Cleaning the Fan
If your PS4 Pro is making a racket that sounds like a tiny robot screaming, it might be a sign that the fan needs a little TLC. Over time, dust and dirt can build up inside the fan, causing it to work harder and create unusual noises. But fear not! Cleaning the fan is a simple fix that can significantly reduce the noise and help your console run smoother.

| CE-36329-3 | Corrupt data | Reinstall the game |
| CE-33177-1 | Cannot load saved data | Check storage settings |
| CE-30005-8 | Download error | Check internet connection |
Checking the Disc Drive
Is your PS4 Pro’s disc drive making an excessive fuss when you insert a game or movie? It might be time to investigate and see if something is causing the noise. Sometimes, a misaligned disc or debris stuck in the drive can create strange sounds. By checking the disc drive and ensuring everything is in its place, you can eliminate the noise and enjoy a quieter gaming experience.
Software Glitches and Updates
Sometimes the software inside the PS4 Pro gets a bit mixed up. Don’t worry, here’s the fix!
Updating Your System
Keeping your PS4 up-to-date is like giving it a shiny new toy. It can solve lots of problems! To update your system, make sure you’re connected to the internet. Then, go to Settings, select System Software Update, and follow the on-screen instructions. Your PS4 will download and install the latest software, making sure everything runs smoothly.
Rebuilding the Database
Think of it as a quick spring cleaning for your PS4’s brain. Rebuilding the database can really speed things up! If your PS4 Pro is feeling sluggish or not performing as it should, rebuilding the database might help. To do this, turn off your PS4 completely and then start it in Safe Mode by holding the power button. Select “Rebuild Database” and let the process run. This will make sure all your data is organized and your system runs efficiently.
Safe Mode Rescue Operations
Safe mode is like the secret ninja training place for your PS4! It can help you fix some tricky issues.
Entering Safe Mode
To enter safe mode on your PS4, first turn off the console completely. Then, press and hold the power button until you hear a second beep. This will boot your PS4 into safe mode where you can perform some magic!
Options in Safe Mode
Once your PS4 is in safe mode, you’ll have a few options to choose from. “Restart PS4” can help reboot your console. “Change Resolution” can adjust the display settings in case of any visual issues. “Rebuild Database” can clean up and reorganize your PS4’s files. “Restore Default Settings” can reset your console settings to default if things are really out of whack. And “Initialize PS4” is the last resort, erasing all data and starting fresh. Be careful with this one!

Even superheroes need help sometimes. If these steps don’t work, it might be time to call in the pros for PlayStation repairs.
